What People Say About Us

Mobtown was EXACTLY what I always hoped for in a studio. I recorded most of my album myself but when it was time for the finishing touches I knew I needed a professional. Mat booked me an amazing drummer, recorded the drums, then mixed and mastered the EP. He did a spectacular job.

- Robert

...Mobtown Studios is onto something entirely different, something that might resemble a bit more closely the future of music...

- Baltimore City Paper

Mat is the kind of flexible, versatile, and open-minded person you want to make a record with. Whether you need him to arrange microphones and consider acoustics or edit beats with precision of a surgeon, whether you want industry standard polish or you want to make something personal and experimental, he has the experience and creative solutions to help you find the sound you're searching for.

- Al Shipley (Western Blot)

Working with Mat was everything my band and I could have hoped for. Not only is he a great engineer with a fantastic ear, he's also incredibly personable, kind, and unfathomably generous. We're still in contact with him months after our session ended, and we cannot wait to work with him again.

- Serena Miller (Legends of Et Cetera)

We've worked with Mat on several albums for two projects, one involving a multilayered string quartet, and he is amazing to work with. So open-minded and knowledgeable, he always has great input and suggestions, or just new things to try out. He is so kind and makes everyone feel so comfortable at the studio, I could not imagine a better recording situation.

- Anna Meadors (Joy on Fire / Three Red Crowns)

Pick our Brains

We get a kick out of fixing our own gear. We research things like how to use an acoustic guitar as a reverb chamber or how best to mic cellophane. The learning never ends and we believe that we all sound better when we learn from each other.
